So I matched with someone online. I dont have my real name on there so was surprised when I had a message from him with my real name! I had no idea who he was but then remembered we used to do a sport together over 20 years ago and he was the year above me at school.
So we had 2 dates and are in each others 'bubble' we have had sex for the first time. It has only been a few weeks and after not having sex for 2 years, this was a big thing for me. I really like him and feeling overwhelming emotions at time.. I can see it may turn into love. It seems he is feeling the same. I guess I am just worried it will go wrong, he will decide otherwise, all the normal anxieties at the beginning. We are both mid 40's and I'm looking for a life partner, not a fling. Also I believe peri menopause is setting in and I'm unsure how to bring this up with him, if I do?
Just any advice how to navigate this.
Before him I've had online dates, divorced 2012 and a few relationships since including an abusive one. I'm worried I may be being too honest and available and he doesnt have to work for it. Just advice how to navigate this? perhaps I just need to relax?!
